In the Community

We pride ourselves on providing quality eye care and giving back to our community.

EyeZone is the Official Optometrist of the Nevada Wolf Pack. Additionally, we partner with Wolf Pack Athletics, as well as other local nonprofits in a number of ways each year.

EyeZone’s Military Hero of the Game – At all home Nevada football games, EyeZone and the Wolf Pack recognize a Military Hero. This Veteran, or active military member, gets tickets to the game, access to a VIP tailgate before the game, and goes out onto the field and recognized during the game. We received such incredible feedback from the Veterans we honored this year, they were all so touched to have been honored.

EyeZone’s Charity Stripe Celebrity Shooter – During seven home Nevada basketball games, a local celebrity attempted to shoot five free throws during halftime. For each free throw made, EyeZone donated $200 to Moms on the Run, with a minimum $500 donation per game. Recent celebrities included Steve Hytner (from Seinfeld), Bill Frankmore and Shelby Sheehan from KRNV News 4, World Champion Golfer Patty Sheehan, fitness trainer Camie Craigg and NFL Quarterback Dan McGwire. In addition, EyeZone donated money to Moms on the Run for every free throw made by the Wolf Pack throughout the entire basketball season. We're proud to announce that in 2018 we awarded $4,500 to the Justin Hope Foundation and in 2017 we gave Moms on the Run a donation for $5,050!

​Children’s Vision Wellness Days – Throughout the year, EyeZone will host free eye exams for children from low-income families. EyeZone will also provide glasses to those children who need them, free of charge.

​Monthly Appointments and Glasses for the Eddy House - We set aside appointments each month for homeless youth in the Reno/Sparks community and provide eye exams and glasses at no charge. Seeing these individuals light up when they put on their new glasses brings us so much joy.

​Donation Drop Off Locations – During the holidays, EyeZone partners with local charities to host drop-off locations for donation collection; ranging from toys, clothes, food and more. Each office works with a charity that is “local” to them; Christmas Cheer in Lake Tahoe, the Ron Wood Community Center in Carson City and Catholic Charities of Northern Nevada for the Reno locations.

​Dinner at the Ronald McDonald House – We just prepared our first dinner for the families at the Ronald McDonald House. We’re planning on doing this multiple times during the year. In addition to giving back to our community, this activity a fun team building event as well.
